It’s not her fault you can’t keep your hand out of your pants.

10/10 would make this comment a required school reading

Yes. But telling her that out of the blue might not be, depending on the situation.

It’s really more, “I can dress in a manner that I enjoy, and would appreciate it if you didn’t act like a creep and treat me like less than a person because of my clothing.”

I think we can argue they’re both.

Ohhhhh this got shared to Kotaku’s mainpage, that’s why all the creepy comments showed up. Makes sense. Creepers never die.

Thinking a woman is sexy is not automatically objectification! Handy tool: subjects act, objects are acted upon. So, if you’re treating women as subjects (seeing women as people who can make choices), you’re fine. If you’re treating women like objects (seeing women as things to be acted upon; i.e. “I don’t even ask,…

I think they did read their history books since it says “part 2"

Any time I see things like this I think to myself, “how did no one think this was wrong?” How many people saw that before it went on the bus, and everyone thought “yeah this is fine.”

You do understand how objectification works, no? Because I read these kinds of posts a lot, and it’s rather silly how many of you don’t get it. First of all, breasts don’t equal objectification.

a clearly sexual picture to grab the reader

Breaking news: white man with lots of privilege cannot handle losing contest. Just wants things handed to him.

That doesn’t really apply if you are trans. The maintenance dude at the law firm I worked at tried to accost me in the bathroom at my last job. Coworkers at my government accounting job have asked about if I have a penis. From what I can tell, it doesn’t really matter where you work unless you are in a super accepting…

Any advice on how to completely shut down the conversation and make it clear that I don’t want to resume it at all(preferably in a manner that lets me keep my job)...like when my boss tries to drag me into political discussions every day?

Lately, because my job is one nobody can really get rid of you in, I’ve been saying, “Rude”, “Nope”, and “Really?” to intensely rude questions. I get a lot of them because I’m trans, so after a while you can’t just keep redirecting that shit with a smile.

“I’m sick and tired of [the majority of the population]...”

“I’m sick and tired of people like you...”

Oh Megyn Kelly, how I simultaneously despise and cheer for you
